I've had ISDN back with my previous employer.
It sucked alot (speed wise).
It wasn't particularly fast and it was outrageously expensive.

My big tip is to be totally aware of the pricing model you are on.
The wrong plan and the wrong style of use (ie how long you hold the line open for) can 
very very quickly mount up an enormous bill (I have a photocopy of a bill for one 
month of over $700!)
This should be able to be avoided with a little thought.
My employer at the time paid for this, forced me to use a particular plan, and forced 
me to use a particular router with timeouts set _way_ to low, so that web development 
led to a new connection every 2 minutes for 8 - 10 hours a day. I tried to get the 
plan and settings changed, but apparently corporate standards were way more important 
than common sense or economics.

Enjoy your 'broadband'.
